VistaPharm LLC — Aminocaproic Acid Oral Solution, 0.25 grams/mL, Rx only, packaged in 8 Fl. Oz. (236.5 mL) HDPE bottles
Stop taking it and tell your doctor or pharmacist.
Why this is on The Recall Registry: This is a consumable product recalled for what is inside it. It was found to contain a drug or chemical that is not on the label. That is different from an allergen or a contamination scare: anyone taking it has been taking a substance nobody prescribed, in an unknown dose, and it can interact with medication they are already on. Follow the agency notice rather than judging it by how the product looks.
What’s wrong
Failed Excipient Specifications: high content of ethylene glycol (EG)
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — Contains a chemical that is not safe to swallow at any dose.
What to do
Stop taking it, and tell your doctor or pharmacist that you have been taking it. It contains a drug ingredient that is not on the label, so they need to know — it can interact with medication you are already on.
